White Sonora Pita

White Sonora Stone-Ground Flour Pita

Pita is a beloved staple of Mediterranean cuisine and is a simple yet incredibly versatile way to create a delicious meal. These soft, fluffy pockets of bread are perfect for any meal and are sure to be a crowd favorite! The key to achieving a perfectly puffed-up pocket in your pita is by keeping your oven and pan very hot. Made with our stone-ground ROC White Sonora flour.

Ingredients:
2 1⁄4 - 2 1⁄2 cups Oatman Farms® Regenerative
Organic White Sonora T-85 fl our
1 tsp. salt
1 cup lukewarm water
1 tsp. honey
2 tsp. active dry yeast
2 tbsp. olive oil

Add 2 1⁄4 cups flour and salt to a large bowl. Add remaining ingredients together in a separate bowl, stir, and let sit for 1-5 min, or until bubbles just start to appear indicating your yeast is activated. Stir the wet into the dry ingredients until a shaggy (very rough looking) dough forms.

Cover the bowl and let the dough rest for 15 min.

In the bowl, mix the dough for about one minute using a spatula or spoon until it comes together and is slightly less sticky. If the dough does not get any less sticky, add more flour, 1 Tbsp at a time, into the dough. You may need up to 1⁄4 cup more. The dough has a sufficient amount of flour when it is soft and slightly tacky to the touch, but doesn’t cling to your finger.

Dump the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, or until it can be turned and folded into a smooth ball.

Put the dough ball in a clean bowl, cover, and let rise for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size. When the dough is doubled, preheat your oven to 475°F. Place either a pizza stone or a sheet pan in the oven to heat up.

Divide the dough into 8 portions then, one at a time, fold each of the edges under to form a rough ball. Place the rough ball on a lightly floured surface with the smoother side on top and, with your hand lighty cupped over it, roll it into a smooth ball by moving your hand in a tight circular motion over the floured surface, dragging the dough along. Lay each portion aside and cover with a cloth. Let rest for 10 minutes before proceeding.

Once the oven is preheated, take one dough ball at a time, place on a well floured surface, sprinkle flour over top, and gently press down with your hand laid flat. Gently press the dough into an even flat disk that is about 1⁄8 of an inch tall, or 6-8 inches in diameter. Place pita dough on your preheated baking surface in the oven with at least 2 inches of space between them. You may only be able to cook 2-4 pitas at a time. After 2 minutes, the pitas should be puffed up. Flip them and cook for about 1 minute longer on the other side to cook through. The surface will be pale but may have just a few golden patches throughout. Place the cooked pitas in a clean cloth to keep them warm and soft.

Repeat until all the pitas are cooked, then enjoy!
